Summary:                    FIND_LIBRARY fails to find _debug libraries in
FindQt4 on Mac
Description: 
The following lines of code are used to find the QtCore library in release and
debug formats -- the release version succeeds, while the debug fails (sets to
-NOTFOUND), despite the fact that QtCore_debug exists, as the list shows.  I
tried all manner of copying things directly into the frameworks dir instead of
having symlinks, and creating all the other versions of the names, moving the
other things named _debug out of the way, etc.  nothing seemed to work.  totally
bizarre!  hopefully there is a fix.  

As a work-around I just aded QtCore to the NAMES list for the debug case and
that works given that I know I have debug libraries, but obviously is not a good
general solution.  Thanks for an excellent system!

    FIND_LIBRARY(QT_QTCORE_LIBRARY_RELEASE
                 NAMES QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX} QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX}4
                 HINTS ${QT_LIBRARY_DIR_TMP}
                 NO_DEFAULT_PATH
        )
    FIND_LIBRARY(QT_QTCORE_LIBRARY_DEBUG
                 NAMES QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX}_debug QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX}d
QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX}d4
                 HINTS ${QT_LIBRARY_DIR_TMP}
                 NO_DEFAULT_PATH
        )
